On each episode of ONE SONG, friends Diallo Riddle (Emmy-nominated star and creator of HBO Max’s 'South Side' and IFC’s 'Sherman’s Showcase') and Blake "LUXXURY" Robin (Music Producer & TikTok creator) will hilariously break down ONE SONG from the pop music canon that you know - or need to know - but have never heard quite like this.

One Song

You’ve probably hear “My Favorite Things” from The Sound of Music more times than you can remember...but have you *really* thought about how often it's been interpolated? And which version is the most iconic? On this episode, Diallo and LUXXURY break down “7 Rings,” Ariana Grande’s smash hit that puts a modern twist on that classic Broadway tune. They discuss how Ariana was inspired to write this song after a post-breakup shopping spree, and how she and her songwriting team worked in cadences and flows inspired by several different rappers. Plus, the guys peel back the layers on how the famous melody went from the stage and screen to a pop banger several decades later.
